Show overview
Podcast: The Ride has been publishing since 2017, and across the 9 years since has built a catalogue of 479 episodes, alongside 1 trailer or bonus episode. That works out to roughly 850 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a weekly cadence.
Episodes typically run over ninety minutes — most land between 1h 32m and 2h 1m — and the run-time is fairly consistent across the catalogue. The publisher flags most episodes as explicit, so expect adult themes or strong language throughout. It is catalogued as a EN-language Leisure show.
The show is actively publishing — the most recent episode landed 4 days ago, with 22 episodes already out so far this year. Published by Forever Dog.
From the publisher
A podcast about theme parks whose original tagline is deeply outdated. Strap in as Mike Carlson, Jason Sheridan and Scott Gairdner share the WAY-too-many things they know about Disney, Universal, and beyond. Produced by the Forever Dog Podcast Network.

Ep 438Discovery Island
EPre–Animal Kingdom, Disney World threw a bunch of real animals on an island and visitors floated over for a sleepy half-day experience. Years later, the island is closed, the infrastructure is rotting, and urban explorers have made countless island videos.Instead of parachuting onto the decaying island and making a video, PTR chose to do an audio podcast instead. It's a lot easier than evading Orlando police!"Alf's Music Career" episode is up at: Patreon.com/PodcastTheRideFOLLOW PODCAST: THE RIDE:https://twitter.com/PodcastTheRidehttps://www.instagram.com/podcasttherideBUY PODCAST: THE RIDE MERCH:https://www.teepublic.com/stores/podcast-the-ridePODCAST THE RIDE IS A FOREVER DOG PODCASThttps://foreverdogpodcasts.com/podcasts/podcast-the-ride See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
